[0002] Smart agriculture utilizes modern information technology to achieve the intelligentization, precision, and high efficiency of agricultural production; among them, pest control is an important part of smart agriculture. Relevant research shows that the occurrence of plant diseases is closely related to pathogen spores. The difference in spore concentration in the air directly affects agricultural production; and the spore detection technology in agriculture realizes the prediction and prevention of agricultural pests and diseases through the collection and detection of spores, and provides effective data analysis.

[0003] Traditional pest control methods mainly rely on manual observation and empirical judgment, which have problems such as poor timeliness and low accuracy. For this reason, devices that can automatically capture and analyze spores have been manufactured in the prior art. For example, the utility model patent with the publication number CN2191017439U discloses a pathogen spore capture and analyzer, which mainly includes a housing. A cover body is provided on the top of the housing. An air inlet is provided on the cover body. A diversion part is provided at the bottom of the air inlet.

[0004] (1) During the process of capturing spores, since the inhaled air contains not only spores but also other pathogen categories, and the capture device cannot effectively capture spores, and the constant temperature environment during cultivation is not suitable for all spore types, which will not only affect the growth of spores, but seriously may also lead to the death of spores;

[0005] (2) After the microscopic photographing and observation of this device, it cannot communicate and connect with an external client, so remote control cannot be achieved, that is, real-time data cannot be fed back, and manual sampling and regulation are required;

[0038] The following will further elaborate on the embodiments of an apparatus for analyzing the spore density in the air according to the present invention in conjunction with the attached Figure 1-8 drawings.

[0039] An apparatus for capturing and analyzing the spore density in the air, as Figure 1 、 2 shown, includes an outer chassis 1 and an inner chassis 2 disposed inside the outer chassis 1. A plurality of intake grilles 11 for absorbing air are provided on both side walls of the outer chassis 1; a working platform 21 is disposed inside the inner chassis 2, and a station turntable 3 is rotatably connected to the working platform 21. Spore capture units 4, spore sampling units 5, spore culture units 8, and spore microscopic photography units 9 are circumferentially disposed on the edge of the station turntable 3. A film covering unit 6 and a culture solution titration unit 7 are disposed between the spore sampling unit 5 and the spore culture unit 8; after the spore capture unit 4 automatically captures the spores in the air and transfers them into the inner chassis 2, at the same time, the spore sampling unit automatically picks up and places a glass slide onto the spore sampling unit 5 to complete the spore collection process. After being cultured and processed by the spore culture unit 8, it is transferred to the spore microscopic photography unit 9 to complete the acquisition and shooting; it further includes a touch screen controller 10 disposed on the surface of the inner chassis 2. The touch screen controller 10 is signal-connected to an external client, and intelligently analyzes and counts the types and quantities of spores in the images captured by the spore microscopic photography unit 9 and transmits the results to the external client.

[0040] Specifically, the external air is drawn into the inner chassis 2 by the spore capture unit 4, so that the spore capture is not affected by the wind direction, and the pathogenic spore in the air can be captured to the greatest extent, improving the spore capture effect. At the same time, the spore sampling unit 5, the film covering unit 6 and the culture solution titration unit 7 capture the spores in the air on the glass slide, and after being cultured by the spore culture unit 8, the spores are more likely to be photographed clearly by the spore microscopic photographing unit 9. Furthermore, it is convenient to count and classify the photographed spore density images to obtain accurate spore density data, and the data is sent to the externally connected client through the touch screen controller 10, so as to be able to give an early warning of the occurrence of plant diseases and insect pests. In addition, the remote control of the spore capture density analysis device can be realized through the control center, and thus the spore concentration in the farmland air can be monitored in real time, and the development of plant diseases and insect pests can be intervened in time. At the same time, the air spore density analysis device of the present invention can be appropriately adjusted according to the actual situation of the farmland. For example, the layout and quantity of the spore sampling unit 5 can be adjusted according to the size and shape of the farmland; the appropriate spore capture liquid and the spore culture unit 8 can be selected according to the characteristics of plant diseases and insect pests of different crops. In addition, the device can also be combined with other agricultural informatization systems to form a comprehensive intelligent agricultural management platform.

[0041] In this embodiment, an electrical control box 22 is provided on one side of the inner chassis 2. The electrical control box 22 is electrically connected to the spore capture unit 4, the spore sampling unit 5, the spore culture unit 8 and the spore microscopic photographing unit 9 respectively to control the wind force of the spore capture unit 4, adjust the temperature and humidity of the spore culture unit 8, and control the shooting parameters of the spore microscopic photographing unit 9. A power supply mechanism 12 is provided on the top of the outer chassis 1. The power supply mechanism 12 includes a solar panel 121 and a wind power generating fan 122. A sun tracking component is connected between the solar panel 121 and the outer chassis 1. The sun tracking component uses a plurality of gear transmissions and worm and worm gear transmissions to realize the adjustment of the direction, and can track the irradiation direction of the sun, so as to drive the solar panel 121 to be adjusted in real time according to the irradiation angle of the sun, so that the solar panel always faces the sun to collect energy and convert it into electric energy. A wind vane is provided at the tail of the wind power generating fan 122, and a rotating shaft at the bottom of the wind power generating fan 122 is rotatably connected to the solar panel 121.

[0042] Specifically, the power supply of the electrical control box 22 comes from the power supply mechanism 12. The operation of the entire device is completed through the functions of the solar panel 121 and the wind power generation fan 122. The solar panel 121 uses the solar tracking component to complete the tracking of the sun, and can automatically adjust the tilt direction according to the irradiation direction of the sunlight, so that the solar panel 121 can collect sunlight to the greatest extent and convert it into electrical energy. The purpose of setting the wind power generation fan 122 is to generate electrical energy for the normal operation of the device when there is no sunlight or in rainy and cloudy weather. The wind vane set at the tail of the wind power generation fan 122 can automatically monitor the wind direction and automatically control the rotation direction of the wind power generation fan 122, so that it can automatically adjust according to the wind direction. The wind power generation fan 122 is rotatably installed on the solar panel 121, so that it can rotate according to the wind direction to adjust the windward direction and keep the wind power generation fan 122 in a power generation state at all times.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, an observation hole 31 convenient for microscopic observation is formed in the station turntable 3. A bearing block 32 for placing a fixed glass slide is fitted in the observation hole 31. A rotating wheel 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the bearing block 32, and there is a certain height difference between the top end of the bearing block 32 and the surface of the station turntable 3, so that the glass slide is fixed in the observation hole 31. The purpose of this setting is to enable the glass slides in the spore sampling unit 5 to fall into the observation hole 31 one by one, and the entire blanking process is automatically controlled, effectively avoiding excessive accumulation of glass slides in the observation hole 31 and causing waste.

[0044] Specifically, the bottom end of the station turntable 3 is connected to a driving mechanism. The driving mechanism includes a gear turntable, a driving motor and a driving gear. The driving gear is fixed to the output shaft end of the driving motor, and the driving gear is located in the gear turntable and meshed with the gear turntable to drive the station turntable 3 to rotate. A plurality of through holes are circumferentially distributed on the working platform 21 at a position opposite to the station turntable 3. A collection box 34 is arranged below one of the through holes. The collection box 34 is used to collect the glass slides after shooting and detection.

[0045] In this embodiment, the spore capture unit 4 includes an air inlet cavity 41, an air duct 42 and a suction fan 43. One end of the air duct 42 is connected to the air inlet cavity 41, and the other end extends to the station turntable 3. The suction fan 43 is installed in the air inlet cavity 41. The air inlet cavity 41 is in a funnel shape and is communicated with the air intake grille 11. Under the action of the suction fan 43, the air inlet cavity 41 sucks air through the air intake grille 11 and introduces it into the air duct 42, and the air duct 42 introduces the air into the spore sampling unit 5.

[0046] Specifically, when the spore capture unit 4 extracts external air, the intake grilles 11 provided on both sides of the outer chassis 1 can further increase the air extraction area, and the structure of the grilles can also effectively prevent rainwater from entering the outer chassis 1. The suction fan 43 is installed in the air inlet chamber 41, and the air inlet chamber 41 is located at one end of the outer chassis 1 close to the intake grille 11. The suction fan 43 sucks the air containing spores into the air inlet chamber 41 and conveys it to the inner chassis 2 through the air duct 42. The purpose of setting the suction fan 43 is to capture the spores in the air even when there is no wind. At the same time, the suction fan 43 can be connected to an external client to achieve remote control.

[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the spore sampling unit 5 includes a sampling bracket 51, a storage 52, and a cleaning scraper 53. One end of the storage 52 is fixed on the sampling bracket 51, and a storage groove 521 for storing glass slides is provided on the storage 52. Limiting plates 522 for preventing the glass slides from sliding out are provided on both sides of the storage groove 521. One end of the cleaning scraper 53 is fixedly connected to the sampling bracket 51, and a scraping strip 531 is inserted at the other end. The scraping strip 531 is arranged in contact with the surface of the working station turntable 3.

[0048] Specifically, while the suction fan 43 extracts external air, the spore sampling bracket 51 starts to drop the glass slides stored on the storage 52 into the observation holes 31, and as the working station turntable 3 rotates, the glass slides are transferred to the air outlet of the air duct 42. Among them, the spores are pressed onto the glass slides under the action of the film coating unit 6, which facilitates the subsequent observation of the spore species. During the rotation of the working station turntable 3, the glass slides on the spore sampling bracket 51 naturally fall into the observation holes 31 of the working station turntable 3 under the action of gravity. When the observation holes 31 on the working station turntable 3 leave the position of the storage 52, since there are no observation holes 31 on the other parts of the working station turntable 3, the glass slides can only fall into the observation holes 31 one by one. Then, after the glass slides complete the shooting and detection, they are scraped off from the observation holes 31 by the scraping strip 531 under the action of the cleaning scraper 53 and collected in the collection box 34.

[0049] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the film coating unit 6 includes a film coating bracket 61, a film coating guide rod 62, and a coating ball 63. One end of the film coating guide rod 62 is fixedly connected to the film coating bracket 61, and the other end is movably connected to the coating ball 63. The coating ball 63 has a spherical structure and is used to coat the spore capture film onto the glass slide. After the spores are extracted into the inner chassis 2, in order to capture as many spores as possible on the glass slide, the coating ball 63 is used to coat the spore capture film on the glass slide so that a large number of spores can be quickly fixed on the glass slide. Among them, the coating ball 63 accurately fits the glass slides on the working station turntable 3 under the drive of the film coating guide rod 62.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 , 7 shown, the culture medium titration unit 7 includes a titration bracket 71, a titration pump 72 and a controller 73. A plurality of titration pumps 72 are provided. The plurality of titration pumps 72 are respectively fixed on the titration bracket 71, and one end of the titration pump 72 is connected with a titration tube 74. The controller 73 is electrically connected with the titration pump 72 to control the titration pump 72 to drip the culture medium according to the position of the slide; after the slide is dripped with the culture medium, it will enter the spore culture unit 8 for growth culture for a certain period of time. Among them, the spore culture unit 8 includes a culture bracket 81, a culture box 82 and a heater 83. The bottom end of the culture box 82 is of an open structure, and the culture box 82 is fixed on the culture bracket 81. A culture lamp 84 is suspended in the culture box 82. A dual-control temperature controller 85 for controlling the heater 83 is also provided on one side of the culture box 82. The heater 83 extends into the culture box 82.

[0051] In order to make the spore photograph image clearer, so as to facilitate more accurate judgment of the spore species. After the spores are captured on the slide, the culture medium is dripped onto the carrier slide by the titration pump 72 and moved into the culture box 82 through the station turntable 3. The purpose of adding the culture medium to culture the spores is to provide a suitable growth environment for the spores so that they can grow and distinguish species quickly. Among them, to ensure a suitable growth environment, the culture lamp 84 provided in the culture box 82 can accelerate its growth rate, and at the same time, the heater 83 and the dual-control temperature controller 85 are used to accurately control the temperature in the culture box 82 to provide a suitable temperature for the growth of the spores.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the spore microphotographing unit 9 includes a microscope bracket 91, a lifting drive assembly 92, a microscope camera 93 and a supplementary light table 94. One end of the lifting drive assembly 92 is fixed on the microscope bracket 91, and the other end is slidably connected with the microscope camera 93. The microscope camera 93 is arranged above the station turntable 3, and the supplementary light table 94 is arranged below the station turntable 3 and is arranged coaxially with the microscope camera 93; among them, the lifting drive assembly 92 includes a lifting slide 921, a fixing plate 922, a slider 923, a connecting plate 924, a lead screw 925 and a driving motor 926. The lifting slide 921 is fixedly connected with the microscope bracket 91 through the fixing plate 922. The slider 923 is slidably connected to the lifting slide 921, and a threaded hole is opened at the axis of the slider 923. The lead screw 925 passes through the threaded hole and is threadedly connected with the slider 923. One end of the connecting plate 924 is fixedly connected with the slider 923, and the other end is fixedly connected with the microscope camera 93. The driving motor 926 is arranged at the top end of the lifting slide 921, and the output end of the driving motor 926 is in transmission connection with the lead screw 925, so that the height of the microscope camera 93 can be adjusted according to the detection requirements.

[0053] It is worth mentioning that the microscopic camera 93 uses a digital microscope with an automatic focusing function, and at the same time, the supplementary light table 94 uses a ring-shaped supplementary light source that automatically adjusts the light according to the environment. During the shooting process, the digital microscope can automatically change the magnification of the objective lens according to the shooting requirements to more intuitively and clearly observe the density distribution of the spore species.

[0054] The working principle of the present invention:

[0055] When starting to work, when the station turntable 3 rotates counterclockwise to the lower part of the spore sampling unit 5, the glass slide in the spore sampling unit 5 is automatically fed into the observation hole 31. At the same time, the spore capture unit 4 sucks the outside air into the inner chassis 2 through the suction fan 43 and partially falls onto the glass slide. When the station turntable 3 rotates to the lower part of the film coating unit 6, the spore capture film is coated onto the glass slide by the coating ball 63, so that a large number of spores are captured on the glass slide. The station turntable 3 continues to rotate, and the nutrient solution titration unit 7 drips the nutrient solution for culturing spores onto the glass slide so that it can obtain the required nutrients to promote its growth. Immediately afterwards, the station turntable 3 continues to rotate, so that the glass slide is transferred to the spore culture unit 8 for constant temperature culture, providing a suitable growth environment for the spores, making them clearer during the imaging process of the spore microscopic shooting unit 9. Finally, the glass slide after shooting falls into the collection box 34 under the action of the cleaning scraper 53. Among them, the touch screen controller 10 will automatically analyze the shooting results, automatically judge according to the species density of the spores, and at the same time synchronously transmit the processing results to the external client to achieve remote control; the entire spore capture density analysis device is regularly detected according to the preset time period to ensure the accuracy of the test data.
